Is anyone else using D for scripting?
Yes!
I keep my scripts in ~/scripts so that I can just pull them
from github and go on my merry way, with symlinks in
/usr/local/bin, but rdmd doesn't -I the real directory, it does
-I/usr/local/bin, and if I symlink a script.d as
/usr/local/bin/script, it can't find the module.
I can pass -I/home/mio/scripts on the shebang line at least...
Furthermore, if I -J a folder with string imports I would have
to type out the fully qualified path just like with -I. It
would be so much more convenient if rdmd would follow the
symlink to the scripts directory, change the working directory,
and then compile, or something like that.
I feel like the shebang is totally worth it if I could name my
file without .d and symlink to it. Would it be reasonable to
change rdmd to allow these features? I'd be happy to look into
writing a patch for it if it wouldn't be a waste of time.
No comments on rdmd, but have you tried using dub instead of rdmd
for scripts. Makes it easier if you have dependencies on
code.dlang.org modules. You can embed the dub.sdl in the header
of your script.
